Short Story Crash Course is an intensive 21 day course that will whip your stories into shape. We’ll take your manuscripts from desk drawer to editor’s desk in three weeks.

All those stories languishing in your drawer will receive new life as a published piece.

You’ll learn how to evaluate, organize and prioritize your stories. You’ll learn the steps to effective self-editing and how to recruit beta readers. You’ll learn how to identify your stories genre and how to research the market. (A list of helpful sites are included) You’ll learn how to write a cover letter, format your manuscript, assemble a submissions packet and create a tracking sheet for all your submissions.

Short Story Crash Course includes a course book, and three weeks off writing assignments. Each week you are given objectives to complete. If you complete the objectives before it’s time to move on to the next set of assignments, there is a bonus or stretch assignment to keep your momentum going.

This is a self-contained course. Everything you need, you’ll find in the course book.

How do you know this method works? Laura has used this method to publish over 60 titles and counting.

What are you waiting for? Take your writing to the next level and move your stories from drawer to editor’s desk in only 21 days.

The Full Throttle Course takes everything from the self-contained course and cranks it up all the way. In the Full Throttle course you receive critiques of two stories, check ins and questions answered as if in “live” class. Registration will open in the coming weeks.
